Confused I am
Just had an electric shower replaced by the land lord in the property I rent The plumber told me that the electrics will have to be signed off now due to changes in the 2005 regulations, and Jo public cannot DIY jobs like this anymore?? (presumable thay can but will come unstuck when they want to sell?)
Now, I took out a wall, re-wired a kitchen, put in a downstairs loo, etc, etc, in my previous owned house. Does this mean regulations have changed that I cannot DIY anymore?
How can the likes of B&Q sell electrical items or in fact anything like toilets etc, if planning or inspectors stop the likes of me doing DIY ?
I've looked at the Office of the Deputy Primie Minister and am struggling to find a clear cut answer to what I can and cannot do.
Anyone got a link or can advise ?
